🎥 BAYLOR+: GAME WEEK IS HERE

Game week is here for Baylor Baseball.

No place better to get a look at what’s ahead for the Bears
than this week’s Sic ‘Em Pod with head coach Mitch Thompson.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Aint No Mountain High Enough. With five games remaining in the regular season, the Baylor women’s hoops squad is right where they want to be, in the middle of a title race.

Facing one of the best defenses in the country, the Bears went to work in the paint, scoring 32 of their 75 points near the basket en route to a 75-65 victory over 18th-ranked West Virginia.

The Mountaineers entered the game as the sixth-best scoring defense in the country, allowing just 56.2 points per game.

An efficient 10-of-12 from the floor, Colorado transfer Aaronette Vonleh finished one off her season high with 21 points, four rebounds and two blocks. The reigning Big 12 Player of the Week, junior forward Darianna Littlepage-Buggs had nine points, 13 rebounds and a career-high seven assists, finishing one point shy of her 11th double-double of the season.

🔼 Tourney Time. No time for chocolates and flowers for the Baylor men’s tennis team this Valentine’s Day.

It’s tourney time for the Bears, who will enter the ITA Indoor Nationals as the #8 seed and are set to host TCU, the #1 seed and the defending NCAA Champion.
 
Baylor and SMU are serving as the co-hosts of the 16-team event, with SMU hosting eight teams and Baylor hosting the other eight. The final four teams remaining will advance to play for an ITA Championship on Tuesday and Wednesday at SMU. 

First serve is set for 6:30 on Friday at the Hawkins Indoor Tennis Facility.
